So is this a sort of electoral college, with each district having a vote (or a varying number of votes) towards the final decision ? If so, it's the first I have heard of it. I thought the winner would be the candidate who got the highest number of votes in the Thames Valley. The percentage of people who really understood this election and liked the idea must be vanishingly tiny. Let's not do it again. Wow, the City's favourite will have the approval of 5.580 people in a city of some 150, 000 people, IF HE WINS, but he probably won't win. If "Tory Stansfield" wins, this will give us a police force definitely backed by 1,719 citizens, less than 1.2% . That isn't a good way to organise things, is it ? The police force of communist East Germany probably had a bigger popular backing than that.
